League games were originally shown live in the 80s on a Friday night. If I remember rightly, we beat Liverpool 2-0 in a Friday night game. I am largely against any game not played at 3pm on a Saturday, although Wednesday night football to catch up the fixtures lost by FA cup and international weekends is good as well. Would be interested if a study was done that would demonstrate the effects of live games shown at 3 on a Saturday. Let's face it, we more or less have it now with many pubs streaming or using foreign satellite services.

Quite right.

Reckon he's a bit of a Simon Clifford type fraud. No great loss.

Forster was at fault for not claiming a floating ball. The he ball does move more now when it's pinged in at pace, but too many keepers punch floating crosses now instead of catching. I do know a little about this particular subject.

Am presently at least 3 stone overweight. Going to go for it big time after Christmas so might give this a go. I'll finish in the bottom 10% though.

Good shout with John Lennon and Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

What position does everyone think Tadic is most effective in? Whatever it is, I would base the team around that.

Fairytale of New York the best, followed by When a Child is Born, then Christmas Wrapping. I should know, thanks to my kids, all I've listened to recently has been Now That's What I Call Christmas. Love it.

Good points. The starfish technique when going to a players feet leaves them wide open for a nutmeg. Pre-Schmeichel, keepers were lambasted for letting anything in through their legs. The preference to punch, even when under little pressure, winds me right up. Joe Hart is one of the worst for it. Too much continental influence on our keepers now. Go back to coaching techniques practiced by Shilton, Clemence, Jennings, Parkes, Rimmer, Cooper and Southall. Stay big, anything in the 6 yard box is yours, don't get caught under the ball, and catch whenever you can, 1 on 1 stay on your feet as long as possible and try to take them wide. There was a time when we probably had 5 of the top ten keepers in the world.

Yes.

He was crap, to be fair.

F*cking sh*te.

Bottle job keeper should have been all over that.

Best Christmas present Ed could give would be his letter of resignation. Absolutely useless.

Not strictly relevant, but there would be something seriously wrong if Yoshida gets a new deal and Cork doesn't.

Bobby Ryan, Steve Jewitt. Champions League hooligans in the 70s.

He's not good enough.

Vic will tear him a new asshole tomorrow.

I like 'you're going home in a f*cking ambulance'. or 'Nice one Dusan, nice one son, nice one Dusan, let's have another one'. Make a change us nicking a song from Spurs rather than the other way round.

Toure has been crap the last 2 seasons against Saints. I don't think he likes playing against Vic. Stop him playing and we have a chance.

Up to them what happens to it. Cunard took their pieces of silver.

Milliband should take Farage up on his offer and there and then commit to a manifesto pledge for an in/out referendum in his first year of government. Job done. He won't though, because he has the political nous of a brick wall. Worst political leader in living memory.

I liked the Woolworths Christmas advert from 1981. 'Have a cracking Christmas, At Woolworths, A cracker of a Christmas shopping spree, Christmas Woolworths, Is it any wonder, Christmas Woolworths, Is the place to be' F*cking genius you miserable c*nts.

He was found guilty by a jury and has been refused an appeal. That just about says it for me. No nonces in football.

Forgive me if I question the site's impartiality. I have read it.
